HA6 Task 6 - Review

Review

Overall, I think this project went well. It was not too challenging, and I believe I have achieved the goal of the project. One of the issue's I had during the project was not following the plan I had created, and managing my time correctly. Some of the tasks were completed days after I had planned to do them, and piled up over time.

I also kept alternating between drawing the robes and the weaponry, and ended up drawing my art very similarly, and didn't experiment as much as I could have. In this project, one of my strengths was the amount of concept art I had done. I did 1-3 pages of art each for my character, and his weapons. I also looked at the type of clothing and weapons that can be found in Nauto, and took inspiration from those when designing my character.

Task 1 - Sources of Ideas

Sources of Ideas

The game my character has been designed for is Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 which is the sixth installment of Ultimate Ninja Storm is an upcoming fighting game developed by CyberConnect2 and published by Bandai Namco Games. The game is the final chapter in the series and is based on the Anime Naruto Shippuden, the objective of the game is a third person arena style fighting game and is mainly based on the fights that happened in the anime as well as some extra side missions. 

My character has been created for such purpose and is not related to the main plot as he is a polar opposite of the main villain in the game and is part of a group known as the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and my character is located in a different dimension in which the main character will visit and ask my character to help fight in a war. His weapons include a giant blade known as the Executioners blade as well as Kunai and Ninjutsu.

Task 3 - Concept Art Style Profile

Concept Art Style Profile

The type of art that I am good at drawing is simple yet exaggerating, just like many anime/manga styled games such as Dragon Ball Z and Naruto. I like this style of drawing because it is easy to draw, but it can look just as good as more complex art. The environments in this game are colorful and exaggerate, and also sometimes cartoony, which I feel work together excellently. The game has has a sort of 3D over the shoulder view, and the art gives this feeling very well.
